Happy Halloween!

~Happy Halloween~

Taken at the Salon Pari Fermier where all of the stalls were farmers who produced and marketed their own goods. I happened upon this pumpkin "patch" and decided to get some autumn decor for my apartment... as I was picking through the mini pumpkins, more than one elderly woman came up to me and asked if they were good to eat or not. Not ever having tried the minis before, I instead explained that I use them for decoration around the house in addition to pointing out how cute they were!

Their perplexed reaction tells me that the French aren't big fans of pumpkins used as decoration...
